Pay a visit to Texas Tech Museum. With the help of Google Map, make a personal map of your tour in the museum, from the perspective of an architecture student.
1. Mark the entrances. Which entrances are for public use? Which is the main entrance?
2. Mark the locations of public accessible areas: lobby, exhibition spaces, transition area, bathrooms, circulation (stairs/elevators/ramps) areas. What other public spaces in the museum does it have?
3. Can you figure out the locations of storage, offices and ancillary? If so, how did you figure it out?
4. For the exhibition spaces: how are these spaces connected to each other? What is the light source of each space? What is the theme in each exhibition space (with pictures)? How much time did you spend in each space? What experience/mood did you have in each space (:-) or :-(, or anywhere in between, be creative about this)?
5. What is your navigating route through the building (use dashed line to show this).
6. What is the ADA application in this building, including the bathrooms?
7. What is your experience in the lobby?
8. How many floors are there in the museum? What are they for?
9. Add one or two more pieces of information that you noticed during your visit and you think is important to this the design of museum.
Please do a floor plan drawing of the first floor of Museum of Texas Tech University. Please reflect all the answers to the each of the questions above (through drawing, text, note, diagram, figures, photos, etc., but try and use as less text as possible). You can use single lines for the walls, but please be as accurate as possible about the measurements, for example the width of a pathway.
Make a poster of size 24" x 36". The floor plan at 1/16"=1'-0" scale. Title, north arrow and date of visit required. Make it creative and it is OK to make it fun and personal!
